  The best of the best!

  Ann is one of a kind! She is bubbly, sweet and caring to your needs for a beautiful wedding ceremony! She is attentive on every detail you want in your ceremony. If you’re a nervous bride like myself she has the most calming vibe. If it wasn’t for her reassuring me I would of been a nervous wreck. Ann is an amazing officiant and we were so lucky and blessed to have her officiate our wedding ! Thank you Ann for everything !

  You must Ann's personalized wedding ceremony for your weeding!

  Ann did such a great job for our wedding! She talked to us in details what we need to do and reminded us to thank our mums on the ceremony. She also mixed our life stories in the word to make the ceremony so special! I highly recommend Anna!

  Amazing Wedding Ceremony

  It was an amazing day. Thanks a lot to Ann created such a special experience for us. Ann drafted a personalized love story for us and offered us wonderful blessings.

  Intimate Backyard Ceremony

  Ann was a pleasure to work with. She was attentive and responded quickly to any questions we had. She has a warm and calm personality that keeps you at ease. She performed an intimate, simple ceremony for us in our backyard. It was the perfect marriage day. We highly recommend Ann as a wedding officiant.

  Ann is Awesome!

  Ann was awesome! She was very professional, kind, and detailed. She wrote a beautiful ceremony for us that really captured our story and our personalities. I could not have asked for a better officiant and would recommend her a million times over. She was always available, and timely with responses when needed.

  You were such a fun bride, I had a great time officiating your ceremony. I thought having a New Year's Eve Wedding in downtown Raleigh with a great view was fabulous. I am sure your guests will remember that New Year's Eve well! Thank you for asking me to officiate.

  Truly Joyous Ceremony

  Ann was very thorough, knowledgeable, professional, and dependable. We got the personalized ceremony package, and she worked with us throughout the editing process to fit our needs. We had unorthodox wants and needs, and she was willing to accommodate us. On the day of we had lots of fun and she made sure that all the legal requirements were fulfilled. She is very amicable and our ceremony was truly joy filled!

  I had so much fun officiating you and Savannah's wedding and getting to know you both. I loved the way you made your ceremony unique , from the wedding party dancing down the aisle to the ending with And Now Sashay Away! Your vows to each other were heartfelt and amazing. It was a pure joy to be there with you on your wedding day.

  DeFilippi Johnson wedding

  Mrs. Ann was more than we could have ever asked for. She wrote the most beautiful ceremony. She honored all of our requests and even suggested some ideas that we did not think of before. Her calm demeanor helped keep me calm through the ceremony. We received many compliments from guests not only on the ceremony but also for Ann herself.

  We were honored to have Ann officiate our wedding. Not only was she willing to meet us a few times ahead of time to practice and review the ceremony, she was flexible when Hurricane Florence came through town and we had to reschedule our wedding at the last minute! She will forever be part of the memories of our wedding and we are thrilled that she was able to bless our marriage. Thank you, Ann!!

  Ann really helped make our wedding so beautiful, special and memorable. She was honestly a huge part in the success and joy of my wedding. She wrote and absolutely gorgeous ceremony and corresponded with me frequently. I live out of the country and she was super accommodating and easy to work with and was able to meet with us the day before the wedding- the only day we were able to! She helped me by easing my nerves and stress and with coordinating the ceremony, it meant so much to me and my husband to have her support and guidance. I can not recommend her enough!
